Fuel line?

I snapped the threaded part off my fuel pressure regulator housing part, well I bought a new one and i cant get the threaded part out of the fuel return line, what can i replace that with for the cheapest outcome, i dont want to have to go to ford to get a new one. I was putting on my cck when it happened but so i only need a short little piece. What can I do ?

Well my friend,I did the exact same thing you did and this is what I did to get the broken threads out of the nut.Seeing as how that is a tight spot your working in its hard to get to the nut straight on.I used a large easy out tool at a angle so that it will grab the inside of the nut and allow you to unscrew it out.Hope it works for you,I was just about ready to cut the end off and reflair it when a friend suggested the easy out tool.Good luck,DON'T over tighen the nut!
